"Years of water erosion needed fill and grading. Three other contractors had come and promised estimates. Crickets. Russ came out and gave us an estimate and did the work quickly and professionally. Easy to work with and did the job when he said he would. Very satisfied. Highly recommended. Definitely hire him again if needed."

"5 STAR LANDSCAPING/HARDSCAPING COMPANY!!! LOOK NO FURTHER!! From Zack (the company owner), to Laura (head of office operations), to James (the on-site manager) to the entire crew at the job site----the whole team at ZR Landscaping & Grading is AMAZING to work with!! I found ZR on the Angi site. I called the office and Laura set up a meeting in a timely manner with Zack to visit our home to go over our landscaping/hardscaping needs. Within 15 minutes of touring the property with Zack, my husband and I knew we wanted him to do the work for us----he understood our vision and had terrific ideas about the possibilities for our yard. When we found out that the company had done work for the Biltmore Estate, we were sold! ZR first installed a flagstone patio in the back yard, then a wall and cement pad as an extension off our driveway. They did such an excellent job that we knew we had to engage the team for the â really bigâ job of revamping our front yard. Our front yard is a slope which consisted of a couple of trees, some ill-placed bushes and loads of mulch---basically a hill of mulch. Not pleasing to the eye at all. Plus we had drainage issues. Zack met with us to review the job. I had been doing some research and had come up with a plan----it consisted of a combination of hardscaping and landscaping---and I provided photos of examples I had found online. I wanted terracing, steps, walls, flagstone, and LOADS of varying plants---my dream landscape! Zack understood exactly what we wanted. Our job was scheduled and in the weeks before the start date, I put together my plant â wish listâ . There were over 50 types of plants/shrubs/trees on that list! Laura worked really hard to make the wish list a reality for me. She spent so much time contacting different suppliers to find as many of the plants as possible. It being later in the growing season, this was no easy feat. She researched plant types and varieties and passed along her knowledge to me as well as advice from suppliers. Once all the plants had been purchased, she made sure that the team on-site had a list of what plants were to go in shade versus sun to help organize the placement. Laura went above and beyond as she knew that the plants were the most important part of the whole project for me and I am so indebted to her. The job started on a Monday and the team completed the job in exactly 1 week, even with rain delays and lots of mud---incredible! We now have a grand stone staircase, an upper and a lower natural stone retaining wall, 2 smaller natural stone retaining walls in the middle of the hill which all give the terracing effect we were looking for. The concrete sidewalk that leads to the front porch was transformed into a flagstone walkway and it ties into the stone used for the walls. All of the drainage issues were resolved by the installation of river rock gullies and revamping the old drain system. And did I mention the plants?! ð Loads of wonderful beauties planted. The hill of mulch is no more---it has been replaced by a gorgeous, artistic landscape. If you are looking for a company to go above and beyond, to give you a truly top notch experience, call ZR. You will know it is done right, with integrity and honesty. Thanks for reading!"

The day of the job, Brad and crew arrived on time and prepared for the job. He completed the job ahead of schedule. They even did some extra work at no extra charge. Very professional and super nice group of guys. Already have him looking at my next project."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

Most states do not require excavation companies to hold specific licenses, but many require at least a contractor’s license. Additionally, heavy equipment operators require a special commercial equipment license to operate machinery required for excavation. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing tool to confirm that an excavation company you’re considering hiring is fully licensed. You should also make sure that the excavation team is fully insured before allowing them to work on your property.

Digging out a basement takes anywhere from a few days to a few months. Most projects take at least two to five weeks, but it could take several months if you encounter obstacles. This project takes longer if you need to brace or raise your home before the excavation. Digging out a basement in new construction can take as little as three days.

Hard soil could be a sign of overly dry dirt, either from poor drainage or drought. It's important to test the nutrient levels, density, and drainage capacity of your soil to see if it's absorbing water properly. Begin by adding a light layer of water and observing how long the soil retains moisture. If you experience a good deal of runoff, you may need to aerate your lawn, apply a wetting agent, or hire a professional for a closer look.
